This is so tough to handle… but it’s necessary to hear these stories if we ever want real change to our country’s gun laws.

Doctors and victims of the Orlando nightclub shooting assembled on Tuesday morning for a major press conference to update the media on the number of injured, as well as the conditions of some of those wounded.

At the press conference, one survivor — Angel Colon — spoke publicly about his experience in the attack, where he was wounded after gunman Omar Mateen shot him three times in the leg.

Colon said:

“It’s still fresh to me. We were just having a great time… having a drink.”

From there, as the shots rang out, Colon was hit in the leg and fell — eventually getting run over by other patrons desperate to leave the club:

“I got trampled over. I hear him come back, he’s shooting everyone down on the floor. I look over and he shoots the girl next to me. He’s just doing this for another 5-10 minutes. I don’t feel pain, but I feel all this blood on me from myself, other people… there were just bodies everywhere.”
